They both had a lite-hearted approach to it, but I have no doubt she wanted to win just as badly as he did.
She even had a reduced court, afaik she had the singles (normal) court & he had to defend the doubles-sized court. That's been the case in several past "battle of the sexes" after the first one.
If he were to "go trans!" and enter the Female circuit? He'd win every event easily. I have no idea why there aren't 50 "trans males" doing this already. 🤔
The William Sisters get so much fucking praise for being good at Tennis but Serena (in particular) is just a bitch. Her getting called for coaching was justified but she still acted like the victim and called the ref racist.
See my reply to OP, this is a battle that has been staged many times with all sorts of advantages given to the dickless side (including one where a female Chinese player was given a 40 point advantage over Novak Djokovic every single game), yet the ONLY one you are ever taught about in school is Billie Jean King, who went up against a lardass rank amateur.
Riggs was a pro, but 55 years old and the next ranking that came out he wasn't even in the top 500 men. He still took points from her in every set.
He had destroyed Margaret Court who was THE best in women's tennis history, in May '73.
He took on King in September to a huge TV audience. He claimed he had a flu but still made King sweat like a pig by the end. She was a steroid monster while Riggs was a twig :/
Some other M v W matches saw rules like
men defend the entire (doubles size) court (like this one did!)
No second serve for the male. First fault = lost point. (I don't think that was the case here)
Yes, but that was just a 'for fun' thing, not televised or anything. He beat the older Williams sister, then the younger one right after.
Hung over & smoking between sets, he didn't think he'd win but still spanked them both.

At least they were nice about it. Not like the bitch Serena Williams.
racist
Didn't they do something similar years ago where some washed up tennis player played half drunk and still smoked some top tier female player?
Karsten Braasch vs. the Williams Sisters.

Yeah I was about to say I feel like I've heard this story before.

He wasn't an amateur, he was just like 50 years old and retired.

They should take a cue from the first battle of the sexes and challenge a male tennis player with heavy gambling debts.
